ISLAMABAD: The Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL), Pakistan’s leading exploration and production company, said on Monday that it had successfully commenced oil production from its Bobi Deep-1 well in the Bobi and Dhamraki mining lease area in Sindh’s Sanghar district.
In a statement, the state-run producer said the well was currently producing 2,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd) from the Massive Sand of the Lower Goru Formation. OGDCL had announced the discovery of oil and gas at the exploratory well on June 3.
Demonstrating its operational and fast-track capabilities, the company completed the laying of a 4-inch, 1.5-kilometre flowline connecting the well site to the Bobi Plant, enabling early monetisation of the discovery and the timely commencement of production.
As operator with 100pc working interest in the Bobi and Dhamraki Mining Lease, OGDCL executed the project entirely through indigenous capabilities.
